FREE Family Movie Night
To start 2012 off with a bang, the club has organised a FREE FAMILY MOVIE NIGHT at Pumas new home ground, ‘The Treehouse’, at Les Shore Oval on Saturday 28th January. The night is for all Pumas, potential Pumas, their friends and their families to come down and enjoy a night under the stars, while predicting how many goals, clean-sheets and wins the Pumas will rack up this year!
Despicable Me will be shown on the big screen, with Pumas, friends and family able to lounge around outside and watch the movie on the giant mobile movie screen. The movie is FREE for all comers, with a sausage sizzle, popcorn, fairy floss and glow sticks available to keep the kids entertained the whole night. So grab a picnic rug, some lie-low chairs or some bean bags and enjoy the last weekend of the school summer holidays under the stars!

Grand Finals Postponed
Attention all Pumas and Puma supporters: Due to recent weather, ALL GAMES ARE POSTPONED till next Saturday.
U8 Green
2-7 loss v Holy Cross College
SCORERS: Bryson (2)
It seemed that the boys had decided the season was already over even before they took to the field. But they had a great time socializing and chatting with each other.
Socializing aside, we saw some great efforts put in. Notably by Noah – whose powerful kicking wasn’t too far short of reaching the other end of the field, Bryson did well to finish off the goals when the team managed to set him up and, Nicholas made some fantastic saves while in goal.
Despite losing 7-2, overall, the boys enjoyed themselves.
I would like to thank the team and their supporters for all your efforts this season.
“Player” of the Match was reserved this week for Coach John, for all his efforts over the course of the season.
Pumas into the Grand Final!
Congratulations to all the Pumas out there on a great season! We have had an outstanding year, with 5 teams making their appearance this week on Grand Final Day. Congratulations to our U11/3’s, 12/2’s, 17/2’s, AA9 and AA12’s for getting to the big day! Last time we had 5 teams on Grand Final day; all 5 teams took away the silverware! Games will be played this Saturday at Meadowbank and Morrison Bay, so get down there and cheer on the mighty Pumas in their search for Championship glory! Details below.
In other news, our Premier League boys have also cracked the finals! After only a couple of seasons in the top flight, our Premier Pumas will face off against our arch rivals, the Kenthurst Bushboys. This sudden death preliminary final is sure to be a cracker, and Kenthurst are sure to bring a big crowd. Make sure our boys hear our cheers from the sidelines as they push hard for the Championship. The Premier League boys kick off at 2:30pm at Meadowbank 3, so whether you are playing on Saturday or enjoying the day off, come down and cheer on the best big cats in the league!
Go the Pumas!
AA12 Semi Final
1-0 Win v St Andrews Blue
Scorer: Smitty
With the rain cutting down the finals to just the one semi, the Pumas needed to hold for a draw or a win to make the Grand Final. With Robbo and Cam cheering us on, Windy in Europe and Kyle back in the team, we had Poddy fill in with Southy still recovering from a futsal related ligament injury. With Kyle slotting in to the backline, Clayts proceeded to put on such a show up front that we were left bewildered. How, after 12 years of playing soccer, countless training and FIFA sessions to boot, airswing 5 shots on goal in one game?
Halftime was all about watching Clayts dig himself a hole to crawl into and die, while the rest of us checked the bushes to make sure Penny hadn’t snuck in to the crowd to enforce her curse on the poor man. Second half saw much more Pumas domination, but the Woodies almost stole the game with a speccy from outside the box, that Az guiding into the inside on the far post with a little ‘come on… miss!’ before Dru cleared. 20 seconds from time though, Rang, Erik and Smitty combined on a break for Smitty to pick up the win.
MOTM: Penny. Her range is increasing.
AA12 Round 4
1-0 win v Thornleigh
Scorers: Ranga
The boys wrapped up their regular season with another win, capping of an excellent, undefeated season. With top spot already wrapped up, the Pumas were looking at securing the points and keeping away from injuries, which was achieved comfortably over an improved Thunder outfit. The backs held out well, leaving Az with just the two saves required, while the mids and strikers again pressured the goal mouth, with Ranga eventually finding the back of the net. Dru continued his great late season form, belting several goal kicks out of the full, while Ranga and Robbo topped up the fine jar. The boys finished the season with just the 9 goals against, which is another great effort from the defensive unit. Unlike last year, the forwards have managed to support the backs, putting away winning scores to match the 7 clean sheets. Windy celebrated his last game of the season by bleeding, and Waters put on his dad hat by sending Smitty after a hack.
MOTM: Az, 2 good saves racked up the 7th clean sheet of the season – always going to pick up points when we defend like that.
U8 Green Round 4
0-1 loss v West Ryde Rovers B
It was a bit of a slow game today with the one and only goal being scored at the end of the first half. The boys had a good runaround with the ball constantly going from one end to the other.
Congratulations to Zachary for getting Player of the Match. He played a good game in defense and cleared a number of balls from up near our goal. Well done.
U8 Green Round 11
3-0 win v Redfield
SCORERS: Jasper McCrindle + 2, Nicholas Roberts + 1
Today’s game was the best we have had all season. The boys were all dribbling and passing well. Our goalies, Tim and Bryson, did a great job and Zachary got some great kicks in today.
Congratulations to Jasper for getting Player of the Match. He positioned himself well, dribbled well, scored two goals and helped set Nicholas up for the third goal. He played an all round great game today. Well done.
